The variance components for varieties with years and locations were determined for irrigated seed flax yield tests. Estimated standard errors of a varietal mean for comparative purposes were calculated for different combinations of years and replications. Testing 4 years with 6 replications, or 5 years with 3 replications gave estimated standard errors of 1.8, a magnitude considered practical for these tests.
